ROBOTICS

How these social robots are helping autistic kids. At the Duck’s Nest preschool in Oakland, Calif., a fluffy blue robot asks a group of toddlers, “I want to be your friend.

Will you please be my friend?” Robotics experts are testing this low-cost and affable robot, called Romibo, at schools across the country.
AWESOME Robots that can Help People. Robots Rule!
Bionic robots!

Furry robots! Robots that can play soccer, ride a bike, and climb walls! You can see them all at a new exhibit called Robot Revolution, at the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The exhibit, which opened October 8, explores the capabilities of 40 amazing robots. Upon entering the exhibit, robots and humans alike were there to greet me.
